Populate cost centre in IT 2001 via Leave application submitted through ESS

Gurus,
we have a scenario to populate CC in "Cost Assignment" Tab of IT 2001, when a leave is submitted via ESS. Now we have enabled the additional fileds on ESS and when leave application iView is opened, the CC field is displayed and is defaulted with a CC through an User Exit. But when this leave is approved and posted to IT 2001, the Cost Assignment tab is not populated. However the CC value is very much available in the intermediate table "ptarq_extra_info".
Basically, the CC to be stored in table ASSOB ASSHR.
Many thanks.

How to incert custom leave application IView under ESS overview?

Dear Team,
We are developed custom leave application like Work & Time & now that displaying at work set row
My client requirement is Custom leave application should also display under ESS Overview with iView pic along with other iView’s.
Please share the your valuable suggestions on this
Thanks,
Srinivas

What's the type of appilication you have developed, is it WDABAP based or ...
Ask your portal consultant to create an iview for your application based on your application type (I.e WD ABAP/Transaction code etc) and assign that to page and then under role of ESS for Work & Time workset in portal content admin.

Document Attachment functionality in Leave application page of ESS

Hi All,
I have a requirement where in i have to develop a functionality in standard leave application ( Time management) page of ESS / MSS. Does SAP has any standard file type and any particular size limit to be considered while uploading the file.And will there be any adverse effects if this is done.
Any suggestion will be of great help.
Thanks in Advance,
KN

Hi,
As you would be using file system :
File Extension : if you want control on extension of file you need to code your application accordingly
File Size : THe limit on file size will be impacted by bandwidth & current infrastructure If portal accessesd only in internal LAN you would have more bandwidth and if it through internet you would have less bandwidth. Webdispatcher timeout parameter needs to be configured accordingly. Ideally it should not be problem of file size upto 100MB.

Cost Centre Derivation Issue at the time of PGI

Dear Experts,
At the time of Posting Post Goods Issue, SD Consultant is facing error that GL Account 6* requires assignment to a CO Object.
According to my understanding, system should derive Cost Centre at the time of P.G.I through following logic :
I have assigned Profit Centre : 999999 to the Cost Centre : ABCD and the said profit centre is being used at the time of Sales Order Posting. While doing PGI, system should derive cost centre data from Profit Centre Data which is used in Sales Order but currently system is not behaving like this.
Another way is to assign respective cost centres against COGS Gls through T-Code : OKB9 which is not right I think. Because how can we map Cost Centre Data with Profit Centre Data in order to get Profit Centre Wise Profitability Reports?
Please guide me any solution.
Regards,
Sapna

Hi Sapna,
For most cases, your COGS account should not be a cost element.
Secondly, if you want to make it a cost element, you will have to maintain OKB9 for it, either on the basis of profit center or plant.
System cannot pick cost center based on the cost center master data because there may be many cose centers assigned under the same profit center. There is no one-to-one mapping of cost center to profit center.
I would suggest you do not make COGS as cost element unless the sale order is an MTO sales order or business insists on it.
If business insists on it, then add the cost element to OKB9.

Linking Cost Centre to Hierarchy via ALE

When sending new Cost Centres from our FMS Server to HR/Payroll Server via ALE & IDOCS, the Cost Centres are created, but there is no link to the Hierarchy. (ie) when going into transaction OKEN, they do not appear under the relevant group. However in KS03, the new Cost Centre is displayed with its Cost Centre group.
Is there a Function Module which can be run to rectify this, or can ALE be configured to do it.

Hi Beena,
You can structure your cost centers into groups like
- OverHeads
*SalesMarkeing
*R&D
*Admin
*HR
*Service
*MGMT Office
- Manufacturing Depts
*dep1
*dep2
- Products
*Prd1
*Prd2

Automatic settlement to particular combination of cost centres and gl codes

HI,
A company uses Plant Maintenance for Engineering overhauls. MM is used for Engineering spares only (i.e. not for goods for resale etc).
The requirement is to set up ongoing Plant Maintenance Orders, one for each item of plant (only 600). The plan is just to leave them open, as they are only used at a simple level.
Anyway, for each PM order, the requirement will be to settle automatically, and to a particular GL code and a particular cost centre.
So, for three different works orders:-
Cost Centre -
> 333 334 335
GL code
1234----
>(X)
1235----
>(Y)
1236----
>(Z)
1) What is the best way to achieve this? I am thinking that GL code will be specified by order type (therefore I will need about 10, corresponding to the GL codes) and cost centre will be specified by Work Centre in each order.
2) How do I set up automatic settlement? Can this be at period end only or instantly when good are booked to the order by the stores.

Hi ,
For Plant Maintenance with FICO , you need Settlement rule & settlement profile.　
The settlement rule determines what portions of a sender's costs are to be settled to which receiver(s).
In thesettlement profile you determine to which objects orders of this order type can settle to. You can also assign an order type to a settlement profile at a later date. You can change the settlement profile in the order.
After you create the settlement profile , you need to save the profile to particular order type.
Inside the settlement profile , you will define the control parameter of how is the way to settle included which cost center to post.
For automatic settlement , i think you need user exist - Please refer to userexit IWO10027 or COOM0003 with your abaper.
Thank you.

Cost centre assemment cycle

Dear all,
Question on Cost Center Assessment Cycle:
Controlling environment: only one controlling area with several company codes.
In my standard hierarchy we've got some nodes with cost centre from different company codes in the same node.
I would like to transfer cost from one node to another node via an assessment cycle.
So I activated company code in header data as selection criteria for cost center assessment cycle via Tcode KCIU.
This selection criteria will allow SAP to sort cost centre and only takes the one which will correspond to company code selected.
The sender rule is the "posted amount" and the receiver rule is the "percentage".
Once cycle has been created, I click on the check icon and the check was successful.
When I execute it, SAP warns me that "no valid sender entries were found". The message errors numbers are GA749 and GA710. And those messages correspond to FI message and not CO.
I do not understand because there are posted amounts and all cost centers exist with the good period of validity.
Do you know why? Do you have an explanation?
Is it really possible to activate some news criteria selection for cost centre assessment cycle? Or definitively not possible.
Did I forget any else customizings?
Best regards
Sovann leng

You have two directions to resolve this issue:
1- check TCODE GCA8 and check whether the new GL tables are listed or added specially the FAGLFLEXT
2- You probably need to change the From To periods in the selection parameters. Don't make the From To the same period.
Make sure the Settlement profile is configured appropriately. With a bit of trial and error concerning the GCA8 including defining a new Cycle with another segment, and it'll work.

Determination of cost centre during MIRO for tax account

Hi,
We have the following scenario. We need to raise an invoice via MIRO where tax is applicable. As tax is not claimable, the automatically generated tax line is posted to a P&L account. For this, being a P&L account, cost centre is required. But as tax line item is always system generated, it takes the cost centre default from OKB9 configuration setting.
Actually, the default from OKB9 is incorrect and there should be a logic to determine the cost centre default. Is there a user exit which can derive the cost centre / BA based on certain logic? Is there any other way of handling this scenario?
Thanks.

HIi Tanmay,
I have 2 query
1 We need to raise an invoice via MIRO where tax is applicable. As tax is not claimable--- Who told you about this
2 why you want to post the tax amount to a Cost centre?????????
As i know there is always a tax is attached to the invoice which again assigned to the G/L account , so thease amount you give to the tax authority and its chargaed my customer/ Vendor

Cost centre hierarchy

What s the purpose of dealing with cost centre hierarchy?(Financial->Cost accounting-> cost centre hierarchy)
Where does this actualy fits into?
Regards,
vasanthi.

Hello vasanthi,
Please look for the information on Cost Center via B1 online help.
1. Financials->Cost Accounting->Define Cost Center Hierarchy, here
you can define a new template as you need, add department as
Slibling and add various expenses/revenues as the Child to relevant
department.
2. Financials->Cost Accounting->Profit Center - Report-> Select the
Dimension used in the template from the drop down list then tick the
radio button before 'Template' and select the template you have defined,
then click 'OK'.
Link between cost center hierarchy and chart of accounts:
First of all, you define the various cost centers or departments in your
company as profit centers.
Then assign revenue and expense accounts to the profit centers so that
any data relevant to a profit center can
be updated automatically for all transactions entered in the system.
(This is where we have a link between chart of accounts and cost center
hierarchy).
Costs are allocated to the profit centers using information that you
define in a distribution rule. This means that any costs incurred willbe
allocated to the profit centers on the basis of a specific key.
If you decide that the way in which costs are allocated no longer
reflects the way in which your company works, you simply change the
distribution rule as required.

Create Cost Centre with out co code

Hello spa gurus,
can you tell me is it possible to create a cost center with out co code, looks like co code is mandatory in cost centre master data.
I want to create a general cost centre where i can use on all the co codes. is this possible? if yes what is the config steps.
Thank you
Madhu

Madhu,
can you provide an example where a single cost center will cover more than one Company Code?
An example I could see would be a Customer with many Company Codes, sharing a service center, and potentially that service center is in a service Company Code.
They provide support for all Company Codes, so how do cost get allocated to the individual Company Codes.
This can be done via allocations.
Anyway that may not be the issue you have so please share.

Posting to a cost centre from a sales order

Hi all. We are currently in the process of replacing a third party system which deals with publicity mailing and taking the process onto our SAP system.
At the moment a report is run on the third party system at month end which details the months costs (freight and handling) which is then uploaded into SAP by JV in order to make the postings to the correct cost centres.
However, the current method of raising orders via email will be replaced with raising sales orders on SAP. The sales order will obviously allow postings to a profit centre via the material, but how do I then get the costs into a cost centre for reporting and budgetary control?
I originally thought of using OKB9, however the relationship is not a simple one profit centre to one cost centre, and the costs have to be split across multiple costs centres.
Any ideas would be extremely welcome.
If you need any further info just let me know.
Many thanks

There are a couple of options depending on how the data comes in and how you want to disburse it. You could use a substitution rule and you could also do CO allocations as well. This is because you have one profit center and many cost centers. One to one is a an easy flow match.

Maintain a custom cost centre heirachy

Hi all,
Just wondering if someone could help me with the following: I am looking to maintain a custom cost centre heirachy, transaction OKENN shows the current ones, however I need a few pointers on how they are set and deleted to assist in maintaining.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Controlling Area Settings (OKKP) regulates the Hierarchy. By defualt a Hierarchy is set as Standard and SAP provides options to use Alternative Hierarchies both for CC and PC. You can create and assign it in OKKP and use via OKENN.

Assignment of Cost centre in OM

Dear Experts ,
I am having a scenario ...can two cost centre be assigned to one person. Its like person X is assigned one cost centre.Person Y has left the company.Now we want to assign the same cost centre which was under Y to X..So, person X has two cost centre under him.
Is it possible? as I am facing problem while doing this..If yes..please tell the steps or method.
Regards,
Tanu.

Dear Tanuja,
1. Why do want to assign two cost center with one person?
Info type 0027:
You can use IT 0027 & subtype 01 for distribution of employee salaries.
Ex: Total employee salary want to go particular WBS Element or Order type then maintain IT 0027 with 100%. So when ever payroll postings happening, that particular employee salary will get posted as per IT 0027.
Info type 0001:
where we will maintain master cost center
Assignment of Personnel Costs to the Master Cost Center
Purpose
This data entry scenario for cost accounting assumes that employees always work for their master cost center and that the receiver of an activity is not debited with the personnel costs. This is the standard scenario if you do notimplement SAP Payroll (PY).
If you do use SAP Payroll, you should not use this scenario in the following cases:
You want to debit the receiver object of an activity with the personnel costs
You want to perform activity allocation
The sender cost center is not the employee’s master cost center
This would cause an imbalance in cost accounting, since the sender cost center would be credited with the entered hours and the master cost center debited with the personnel costs.Prerequisites
Employees who enter their working times using a data entry profile specifying their cost center must always work for the same master cost center(s), as specified in the Organizational Assignment (0001) or Cost Distribution (0027) infotypes.Process flow
You enter an activity allocation or confirmation in the time sheet.
In Controlling, the activity allocation credits the sender cost center and debits the receiver cost center.
If an attendance, absence or wage type is entered at the same time, the system writes the working time information to the Attendances (2002), Absences (2001), or EE Remuneration Info infotype (2010) in HR.
The Payroll component determines the personnel costs for the times.
In Controlling, the employee’s master cost center is debited according to what was specified in theOrganizational Assignment (0001) or Cost Distribution (0027) infotypes.
So my suggestion is before assigning two cost centers with one employee just once discuss with your CO consultant he suggest you how to it..!
